PF Census

This is a client library that uses type inference to autocomplete a request for US census data.

Usage

import { createCensusClient } from '@peoplefinders/census';

const census = createCensusClient({
	username: process.env.API_USER,
	password: process.env.API_PW,
});

let { data, error, status } = await census.get({
    zip: 90210,
    range: [2011, 2015],
    q: {
        population: {
            counts: {
                byRace: true,
                byAge: {
                    eightyfiveYearsAndOver: true,
                    female: true,
                    fifteenTo19Years: true,
                    fiftyfiveTo59Years: true,
                },
                byOneOrMoreRaces: {
                    americanIndianAndAlaskaNative: true,
                },
                hispanic: {
                    total: true,
                },
                twoOrMoreRaces: true,
            },
        },
        schoolEnrolment: true,
    },
});

You can use an array to get full datasets.

let { data, error, status } = await census.get({
    zip: 90210,
    range: [2011, 2015],
    q: ["population", "schoolEnrollment"],
});
